Watching: Moving in time

Overview

An apartment building in the east of the Netherlands, near the German border, is destined for demolition. It is the birthplace of the eccentric Henk, who, sixty years later, still lives there. If you desire nothing else, you are already living in paradise. Henk spends his days on a small stool in his kitchen, listening to pirate radio stations—music that transports him back to a bygone era. The building, once vibrant and defined by its post-war architecture, now stands deserted. As former residents revisit shared memories and reflect upon the past, Henk resists the inevitable.
